Ross,

I have just received my Dynon D100. The remote magnetic sensor is in a small 
(4"x2"x11/2") box that gets mounted inside the fuselage with a specific 
orientation to the display unit and away from any magnetic fields caused by 
electrical wires or equipment. It comes with an 18' long cable harness.

The OAT probe "be mounted somewhere on the skin of the airplane where it will 
not be affected by heat sources".

The Pitot probe "has been designed for under the wing installation". They 
recommend "mount it at least 6 to 8 inches below the wing and with the tip of 
the

probe between 2 and 12 inches behind the leading edge". They go on to say 
that it is usually mounted about mid-wing to stay out of the effect of the prop

and the wing tip.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you need any other info that I might have.
